vehicle models enabled (see HELP F5). After this operation the central system will be able to
read the transponder properly and check the hidden Crypto code. With this function Philips*
Crypto transponders can be used in the central system of vehicles with FIXED CODES (not
Crypto), which read the detector as the fixed code for starting the engine.
In this case the full potential of the Crypto transponder is not utilized because the central system
is unable to read and use the hidden part of the code (Crypto). However, it does mean that car
manufacturers can already use only the Philips* Crypto transponder on their original spare keys,
irrespective of whether it is used fully (on vehicles with Crypto central systems) or partially,
reading the DETECTOR only (on vehicles with fixed code central systems). It is therefore
possible to duplicate only the DETECTOR code of a Philips* Crypto transponder onto a Philips*
or Silca blank transponder (T1 – T2 – T5).
Note: this operation can be carried out only after ascertaining that the vehicle central
system is of the FIXED CODE type (this information could be provided by the vehicle
owner or the dealer, based on the year of registration), otherwise the duplicated key will
not work.

When a key with a Texas* Crypto type transponder is fitted into the machine, use of the ‘Copy’
and ‘Identification’ menus has two different effects, shown on the display. The different effects
are the result of the TEX CODE module, which may be connected to the machine to achieve
more precise identification of the various types of Texas* Crypto transponders. Below is a
description of the two different situations:
8.7.1 Case “A“ - the TEX CODE module is NOT connected to the machine.
Any type of Texas* Crypto transponder is identified with the number 4D (see chapter 9
WARNINGS) and the display shows the following message:
T R A N S P . T E X A S C R Y P T O
C A N N O T D U P L I C A T E 4 D
8.7.2 Case “B“ - the TEX CODE ADVANCED module is connected to the
machine.
The machine automatically detects the module and after approximately two seconds, during
which the type of transponder is shown on the screen:

Figure 23 and Figure 24 (if there are problems with the reading, or incorrect readings, choose
the position shown in Figure 24, which improves data exchange between the module aerial and
key transponder)
Fig. 23
Fig. 24
Due to the type of operation of Texas* Crypto transponders, if a number of readings are taken in
too short a time, the transponder is moved, or errors of any type occur during reading, wait at
least ten seconds before attempting to make another reading.

11 WASTE DISPOSAL
EU regulations establish special arrangements for the disposal of waste*.
Machine
The machine is made of re-usable materials. Re-cycling is recommended ecological practice.
Packing
The machine is consigned in a cardboard packing box which can be re-used if undamaged.
When it is to be thrown away it is classified as solid urban waste and it should be placed in the
special paper collecting bins.
(*) "Waste" is any substance or object deriving from human activity or natural cycles, thrown way or to be
thrown way.
• The symbol illustrated above, also found on the machine, indicates that it has been placed
on the market and must be included in separate rubbish collection when the user wishes to
dispose of it (including all components, sub-assemblies and consumables that are
integrated in the product).
• For information about the collection system for such appliances please contact SILCA
S.p.A. or another subject registered in the various National Rolls for other countries in the
European Union. Household waste (or of similar origin) can be included in the separate
collection system for urban waste.
• On purchasing a new appliance of equivalent type, the old one can be consigned to the
dealer. The dealer will then contact whoever is responsible for collecting the appliance.
• Suitable separate collection of the unused appliance and its dispatch for treatment,
recovery and environmentally compatible disposal, makes it possible to avoid potential
negative effects on the environment and human health, and aids recycling and the recovery
of the materials used.
• Unauthorised disposal of the product by users involves the application of the sanctions
provided for in received Directives 91/156/CE and 91/689/CE.
12 ASSISTANCE
Silca provides full assistance to purchasers of the machine. To ensure complete safety for the
operator, any job not specified in this manual should be carried out by the manufacturer or in
